Question

Which of the following farming practices use water most efficiently? Select the two correct answers. (1 point)
planting annual crops
using sprinklers
tilling soil
using drip irrigation
planting perennial crops

Answer 1

The two farming practices that use water most efficiently are:

1. **Using drip irrigation** - This method delivers water directly to the roots of plants, minimizing evaporation and runoff.
2. **Planting perennial crops** - Perennial crops typically require less water than annual crops because they have established root systems that can access moisture more effectively and do not need to be replanted every year.

So the correct answers are **using drip irrigation** and **planting perennial crops**.
